Recently my dearest katerina's closest friends have confronted me, and have told me, that due to my schizophrenia, i have no right to date her. And that, i have no right to date anyone. And have become violent. Do you think that the development of schizophrenia should end a relationship? As with any mental illness my schizophrenia causes many complications, but she has never shown any sign of remorse. And has on many occasions said that it didnt matter to her.But i do not know, Should schizophrenia matter? --kidd--
depends on how bad it is if you have it under control (medication etc) I think the biggest worry is when you're in a very bad stage, if you might become a danger to her. Beyond that... it's between you and her, but as long as she's aware of the potential risks, what to do in a bad phase, etc.
Thank you for your help, it is relatively under control and she knows more than me about my disorder so it should be ok. --kidd--
hope it works out. i have a friends who is a "mild" (whatever that means) schizophrenic. and sometimes he cant control his anger. but i think you should be able to work things out. everyone needs love!
i think that, of course, it matters. its an illness that always needs to be taken under consideration. BUT... people who you have relationships with can decide HOW much it matters. if it bothers them a lot, then obviously things with be complicated. however, if you find someone patient and understanding who is willing to work with you and try to help you and be therefor you, it will make things a bit easier. i know that sounds like some made up person, but there are people like that out there who will love you and be by your side. if this girls not the one, then thats ok. breaking it off now will give you more time to find the right one! good luck with everything.
